"You don't seem very surprised at the big reveal," Mana remarked, eyeing Naver curiously as she dragged the two boys to the garden to see the fruit trees.
"You two really do look like a pair of siblings," Naver told her. "I didn't know most of the details that you disclosed, but I already suspected that Jules was a relative of yours."
"But we don't look too similar except for the hair," Mana protested. "Jules looks like Papa and I look like Mother."
Naver smiled slightly. "You have the same ears and the same smile," he pointed out. "And your demeanour is very similar."
Mana nodded thoughtfully, accepting his words.
"And both of you are too trusting," Naver scolded. "Shouldn't you have sent me out of the room before discussing the royal secret?"
Mana waved away his concern. "I trust you," she said simply.
"So do I," Jules added. He ruffled Naver's dark hair affectionately. "You're a good kid."
